Happier Than 95% of the Population

The message from Team Hoyt, “Yes you can.”

This team has been known for years but today is the first I’ve ever heard of them. Today is a good day! I’m happy I know of their story. Of all the moments in this video that touch the heart there’s one sentence that makes me take pause. The father said of his son, “He’s happier than 95% of the population.” Hmmm, imagine that, happier than the wealthiest, than the poorest, the fastest, the most famous. Happy. Wow.

Team Hoyt is now part of my Gratitude Journal as an awesome example of drive, determination, acceptance and the courage to follow through – Awesome!

  • The Hoyt’s run in the Boston Marathon every year. They have run by me many times and I always find them inspirational! Thanks for the link.
